Guild Wars 1 is very much alive and our /vm/ guild has been surging with players. We are always welcoming new members.http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Main_Page>>1268194 (OP) Previous threadWe are finishing Prophecies progression, now that the Anniversary event is over. Future plans include some GvG scrimmages along with some endgame dungeons. We typically run at least 2 meetups per week: Friday which is campaign prog day, and Saturday for end game dungeons. >THIS WEEKS SCHEDULE:Friday (TONIGHT) May 17th Proph prog will aim to finish Proph. If you're fallen behind and want to catch up we're at Thunderhead Keep.Saturday May 18th: HM UW due to popular request.>NEXT WEEKFriday May 24th: Tomb of Primeval prog day (Proph skills only), if we have spare time we'll do some Sorrows Furnace.Saturday May 25th: HM FoW all welcome
>https://guildwarslegacy.com/forum/thread/10525-announcing-dsoal-gw1-3d-positional-audio-and-eax-effects-for-everyone/>what is DSOAL-GW1When GW was released in 2005, the audio component of Microsoft’s DirectX API was something called DirectSound. DirectSound had a 3D audio component called DirectSound3D, or DS3D, that could pan and amplify/attenuate sound sources based on their position relative to the camera in the game’s 3D world. PC’s with a high-end Creative sound card also had access to EAX, an extension to DS3D with a suite of hardware DSP effects for occlusion, obstruction, reverb, echo, etc. Like most games of its era, GW’s audio system was designed around DirectSound and DS3D, and owners of high-end PCs could get the “definitive” audio experience with EAX.All that ended in 2007 with Windows Vista. Vista completely broke DS3D and EAX. Rather than fix it, Microsoft deprecated DirectSound and pushed developers to adopt its new XAudio2 API for future games. With DS3D and EAX broken, GW hasn’t sounded “right” in any version of Windows since XP.
>>1292636I switched in Energy Tap, and yeah, his build is pretty cool.
third for gwen wife
>>1292636>>1292663I'd go with energy drain over tap. With daze up even the shittest player should be able to easily catch most spells.
>>1292663>>1292711You mean power drain? And yeah I totally agree in most situations unless he only has like 0-2 inspiration magic.CUPS GET BACK HERE WE JUST SAW YOU ONLINE MY WATER ELE SISTER
TO all of you who didn't show up for prophecies - by Kormir you're all K*rz*ck lovers.
>>1292636>Honestly necrosis is a pretty heavy energy investment for a ranger, sure it's only 5 energy but ranger only has 25-35 and you need to spam it. Better off just sticking on Point Blank Shot if your bow damage isn't 0.so far R/E fire storm and pet spam has been doing it for me but I'm not very far and wondering when I should transition to a real build. not even anything meta, just something a little more than half of one build and half of anotheri'm at the grind 2500 rep part of the campaign :)accidentally posted in old thread
I'm going to main assassin and no one can stop me!
>>1292866*blinds you*
>>1292871lol why, it's an assassin, just kill it
>>1292871*dodges**teleports behind you*

Are there people here who can ferry to consulate docks?
>>1292917
Today we finally beat proph, no picture from me cause in classic kensuke fashion he hard DC'd right after we beat the mission lol.Tomorrow at 7 PM EST we'll be doing HM UW, and next week on Friday we'll be doing Tomb of Primeval proph skills only. Current schedule is here >>1288324 after we get through everything listed I'll probably have us take a slight break. Our next prog will be a meme 1 class only factions prog it will start sometime in late June or early July.
>>1292979shut up

>>1293468me after I finish missions and vanquishes. solo farming and setting up this ranger will be the next steps
>>1293468This week, I've been focused on grinding the Kurzick title. Finished Luxon awhile ago but Kurz doesn't have an AFK farm so it's taken me a lot longer. I hit rank 1 on my ironman to get access to the PvE skills and have been doing Echovald Forest VQs on all chars on my main account.Currently at 7.6M out of 10M.

>>1293484How are you farming points? I'm doing Altrumm Ruins and spreading the heroes around a spawn point, so every 5 minutes or so I go around collecting amber
>>1293492>>war>shittake it back, obby headpiece is peak fashion>>rit>midnow you're just lyin
>>1293494I have 9 characters with access to Echovald so I'm just completing all the VQs one time per char. I'll eventually GWAMM all of them so this helps me progress both the Kurz title and GWAMM. I also grabbed the ZVs for Echovald over the last however many weeks and saved them for this week. Other than that, just doing Urgoz SC with my guild whenever we can coordinate some runs.
i have one character (me) with no access to pussy (broke up with my gf of 4 years a month ago and been a trvcel ever since)
Quick question about today's UW run. Is anyone welcome? Even a retard who has never actually finished UW?
>>1293572sure
>>1293572obviously
>>1293572non-retards are not allowed
Hallo from /vg/gw2g/! Gachatrash refugees from /vmg/ are starting to push actual games out of /vg/. Many generals are struggling with page 10 issues and someone suggested that /gw2g/ and this gw1 thread combine. Possibly into /gwg/ with info for both gw1 and gw2.
>>1293697no fuck off
>>1293697fuck off nigger retard
man diessa sets are going for 250e i got to get my derv up

>>1293745you're tower farming? there's no free fow entry this week
>>1293747i got $$$ and it's fun I've only picked it up today
>>1293749you can pop booze when you go up the hill, but it'll eat your profitsmaybe you'll get lucky but you'll probably go negative or barely even long term without pantheon
>>1293746He's gone though and that ESL sperg that got permabanned for being shit at WvW
>>1293761what a shame
>>1293697You can combine with the GW3 threads
>>1293780Is GW3 confirmed, or you just shitposting?
>>1293786NCsoft investor meeting confirmed it's in development a month or two ago. ANet has neither confirmed nor denied it explicitly but we know for a fact they've been hiring for a new game project for years now.
>>1293788>NCsoft investor meeting confirmed it's in developmentWrong, they "confirmed" that they were "thinking" about making it>but we know for a fact they've been hiring for a new game project for years now.That new game project was a mobile game that was cancelled
>>1293792The "just thinking about it" was pure damage control official statement by the company afterwards. The actual phrasing at the meeting as said by the under pressure exec was very specifically "in development".>mobile game that was cancelledThat's an even older thing. They've continued and never stopped hiring people constantly since then for other projects. You can go on their site literally right now and see open job listings for their "unannounced project". https://www.arena.net/en/careers#Open-Positions
>>1293788So how did the GW2 niggers take it ?Badly i assume.
>>1293813Wailing and gnashing of teeth, going off the reddit screencaps posted in a GW thread on here.
>>1293697No, leaving aside the seething hatred most GW1 players have for GW2 our /gw1/ thread is typically used to coordinate us actually playing the game combining with /gw2g/ would make coordinating stuff much more difficult or could drown out or talk in general.>>1293792You're thinking of an even older project that got canceled back during LS4, I don't blame you for not realizing because this is the THIRD time anet has worked on an unannounced project (the last 2 got canceled and had layoffs mid development) the new game they are working on was a UE5 MMO. You can see them hiring for it right now in the other anon's link for open-positions. They've been hiring for this for the last 1-2 years, until recently everyone assumed it was the NCSoft horizon MMO, but with the GW3 leaks people have begun speculating it might actually be GW3. >"But anet have said it's not GW3"Anet has also boldly lied to our faces multiple times even in recent years, they would 200% lie to you about this. If they were to confirm it was GW3 it would absolutely tank GW2 and cause the game to die, there is literally no reason they would ever confirm GW3 this early in development as it would only harm them given how long out GW3 would be. That said, I doubt they'll even have anything to show in the next half decade so you don't really have to worry about GW2 being canceled anytime soon. But given the state of development with SotO maybe cancelling would be a mercy kill for that game lol.ALSO REMINDER WE ARE PLAYING IN 2 HOURS FROM NOW. WE'LL BE DOING HM UW
>>1293829>our /gw1/ thread is typically used to coordinate us actually playing the game combining with /gw2g/ would make coordinating stuff much more difficult or could drown out or talk in general.That's fair. Well, it was worth asking at least.
>>1293706We don't use that word here
>>1293829The thing about Arenanet's lies though, it's that they lie about how much work they're doing, so classic overpromising and underdeliveringSaying they're actually not developing a whole new game is the opposite of that, it's basically assuring everyone that their annual 80 million USD revenue really only goes into shitty expansions with almost no content, as if that's good news for anyone>If they were to confirm it was GW3 it would absolutely tank GW2 and cause the game to dieNah they'd just have to release more than 2 coom skins per year, coomers don't wait for new games they want their booba now>That said, I doubt they'll even have anything to show in the next half decadeTrue, they basically have no talent left it seems, I guess right now they could have the opportunity to nab talent from all the layoffs in the industry but I doubt the leadership is competent enough for that, I mean their website has 3 job openings which is pathetic for something as big as an entire new AAA MMO in active development
>>1293846I wish you the best luck fren. I still follow GW2 talk and news because I use to run a guild there and played it a shit ton years ago, looking at the current state of the game just makes me really fucking sad. GW2 was always a flawed game, but you could still have a good deal of fun with it. But now I realize all the people who made that game great have long since left the company and the game is a shambling corpse being puppeteered by dev's, writers, and management who don't have an ounce of the skill, nor half the vision the original creators had. >>1293850Nah it's not that they aren't developing a whole new game, they just claim it isn't GW3 (which maybe isn't or is a lie, but we're bound to find out eventually), a lot of it is yeah how much work is actually being done but its other small shit too. Like the time they removed mystic coin drops from CM fractals to which people accused them of removing it just to add them to strikes instead to artifically force players to play it like they did with dungeons and raids years ago, to which anet says "no that's wrong" and then their secret balance discord has a leak and one of the conversations is that same guy literally stating it was being done to incentive players to do strikes lol. Or all this alliance bullshit. remember when they made a forum post about that in 2018 and made all those promises with absolutely 0 intention to follow up on them, just to carrot on a stick keep WvW players playing? Then they confirmed in 2021 "yeah alliances are coming this year" and then all we had was 1 buggy canceled beta. Or how the last 3 beta events for alliances have all contained the same exact bugs (such as the achievement one which should be an easy fix...), or the time they claimed the server linking feature was suppose to be a temporary beta feature 8 years ago...>Nah they'd just have to release more than 2 coom skins per year, coomersThis statement is so correct I laughed, and then I cried.
>>1293849yeah, we say frick off nigger retard

This is from today's UWU, worth something? Sometimes people pay for novelty mods such us vs undead
fuuuuuuck I missed UW after asking for it for a month straight I couldn't make it fuuuuck I went out and got wasteeeeeeeeeeeeed yahooo
>>1294555i think the undead mod is used for some farm isnt it? pretty sure ive seen multiple people wanting to buy it before, especially on bow. maybe soosc?
can we do UW again tonight haha
Any chance of us owning a town soon , or are we way behind in factions?
>>1294555is that tb telling you the mats?>>1294594soosc uses longbows of deathbane, but I don't think they hex when you spike. the mod is probably a couple ecto at least
>>1294654>is that tb telling you the mats?yeah, useful
>>1294592Yeah I was wondering where you were lol thought it was strange>>1294633think we're too far behind in faction (need like 500k) and for map to shift more so tanglewood is owned by luxon.>>1294654>>1294665Yeah its a really nice new QoL, they also tell you how valuable runes are if sold to trader.
>>1294654ofc not the entire bow, just the +20% vs undead
>>1294395I had some turboautist get mad at me awhile ago because he was desperate to buy superior dom magic runes and was offering 20e per rune. He thought I was hoarding the runes when I agreed to sell them for that price and when I blocked him he switched to alt accounts and spammed me. Anyway I reported him and got him banned lul

i swear to my lord and savior jesus christ of nazareth that if they just put guild wars complete edition (prophecies + factions + nightfall + eotn) on steam for like $20-$30 that would give those faggots a bunch of money
>>1295132Why do you need it on steam?
I think this is the first time I see black dyes at the trader ever since I started playing
>>1295140probably just lowering the barrier to entrylike how apps will do anything to get your credit card info set up, because people buy things when it's a single effortless click. and people itt talk about wanting it on steam despite it making 0 difference
>>1295132Was it removed from Steam? I rented it on there and can play it, but the store page is gone now.
>>1295140because it's retarded and people use steam a lot and i would like more people to play the game, i've had this shit since 2005https://store.steampowered.com/app/29540/Guild_Wars_Game_of_the_Year_Edition/so you got this which is confusing since it's just prophecies, not the entire game which GOTY impliesthen these threehttps://store.steampowered.com/app/29560/Guild_Wars_Factions/https://store.steampowered.com/app/29580/Guild_Wars_Nightfall/https://store.steampowered.com/app/29700/Guild_Wars_Eye_of_the_North/which then people go uhhh whatand then thishttps://store.steampowered.com/app/29570/Guild_Wars_Trilogy/which doesn't have EOTNmy point it just stick everything together

>>1296080Kill yourself you stupid fucking nigger.
>>1292563>very much aliveWhat exactly does this mean? Does this mean I'll actually see players doing their own thing in wide level ranges with a whole bunch of afks in town or does that mean there are currently 50 people on running one specific activity

>>1296118>actually see players doing their own thing in wide level rangeshow would you see players doing their own thing when explorable areas are instancedthere are probably a few thousand people in game, you can find pugs for daily missions and bounties, there are a few alliances with constant active ally chats, and groups form for scs/pvp stuff/so on every daybut if you go to a random town there will probably only be 1-2 people in it, you can't just pug your way through a campaign like it's 2005
gw1 is going to outlast gw2
>>1296187as it should my only concern is anet folds and the garbage pile that is gw2 takes gw1 down with it
>>1296187If they shut gw2 down they are most definitely pulling the plug on gw1 along with it.
>>1296206Imagine the nightmare private servers that could emerge in such a power vacuum. How many absolute dogshit balance ideas could be unleashed upon the world once power enters the hands of power-tripping admins.
>>1293492it's the only good paragon armor in the game, though.
>>1295993is favor up
>>1296292as a penance, mesmers will be made even worse than they were before the rework
>>1296292If we even get our hands on the server executables in the first place. Hopefully that stopkillinggames thing leads to something before GW1 dies.

>>1296321droprates sucked but the farm was interesting with the guardians and wallows in different partiesI spirit spammed, and you only need to kill like 2 wallows (pulled to shrine even) to check all 3 guardians outside boreas for drops. once you clear the top of the hill, you can bow+spirit the one underneath from elevation, and then do another outside-compass-range kill on the last one down the path the same way

>>1296460a true guild wars player never touches his penis
>>1296184>>1296528My bad I have no clue what I'm talking about, I've literally never played this game before so I was under the impression that it was an MMO and was thinking about checking it out since MMOs suck dick right now. I've heard a lot about it but like I said I've never played it. What is it actually like, could you compare it to other games for an example?
>>1296635It's an MMO, but unless you group up, the other players stay in town only. When you venture out of town (via loading screen, because instanced content) you enter a big zone with enemies and often quests direct you to explore these zones. The story quests will direct you to Missions (imagine a WoW dungeon or anything similar. it has a start and end, a boss usually, planned encounters). You can group with other players in town to explore zones, or group for a specific mission, but because the game is old and they added AI companions, many players just play by themselves. A solo player can bring along a few AI companions and fully customize their classes/abilities and even micro-manage them if you so choose. In this way it becomes more like an ARPG/CRPG than an MMO, but our guild is fairly active and there are lots of people interested in grouping together as humans like the good old days.
has anyone whacked off to their female characters before
>>1296635>What is it actually likeit's a co-op rpg. there are towns with merchants, traders, etc. where you can group up with 4-8 people but once you leave, the area is instanced to your party alone. you can play with real people or fill out your party with ai "henchmen," and you go through a storyline with missions (cutscenes, objectives) and side questsgameplay is the real draw. it's based off magic the gathering, you pick out 8 skills from the hundreds of options (e.g. https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/List_of_Prophecies_skills ) before leaving town and instead of grinding levels or gear, you just get new skills and adapt to whatever the enemies in the area are doing (protection from hexes, condition removal, knockdowns, energy denial, etc.). the whole game is built around this, enemies use the same skills against you, the best skills even have to be found and captured in the wild from bosses
>>1296656I only play dudes. That said there are some attractive female designs in GW.

Are there any RP guilds/communities? Not necessarily of the E variety, although I'm curious about that as well.
>>1296206GW2 takes a lot of resources to host, hosting GW1 is as good as free because the entire game can run on some random toaster at the office if need be.

>>1297111>ex-rapist comments on rape in video games
>>1296879The problem won't be a matter of costs, if GW2 goes down it'll be because the studio has gone under, and if the studio goes under there won't be anyone to pay those server costs no matter how cheap they are, even if there are anet devs who I am sure would be willing to cough up the money to keep the game up, it won't be their decision, it'll be whoever owns the IP, but most likely NCSoft. Unless of course they launch GW3 and kill GW2 servers. That would be hilarious but I honestly think the backlash would be too great for them to do it, depends how tone deaf their management is and how bad they want to sink GW3 cause that'll 100% embitter any GW2 players toward GW3. >>1297075we do, you just don't realize that guy in thread who keeps saying he wants to kill himself is stephen after having to deal with anet faggotry day in and day out.

>>1299080Did you know you can identify runes you extracted from armor to up their value so you can sell them to the regular merchant for profit instead of the pity 25g at the rune trader?
>>1299088wait whatI check the price first, and don't salvage off the drop if they aren't worth something. I thought the merch price was a floor, how much does an id'd rune sell for?
>>1299090Superior runes go for 100+ gold even if they go for 25g at rune merchant
>>1299090>>1299106see
Are the JQ bots still gone?
in 2005 i put yellow + orange dye on a purple hammer that was shit and tried to sell it for 500g as a gold hammer cause i thought that's what people meant by gold when they were selling stuff

>>1299112I kinda don't like thisyou already had the option to sell runes for market-agnostic prices above the trader floor, just don't salvage it in the first place
>>1297829>>1298779I don't get it
>>1299789just wanted iron or dust and hit two bad rolls in a row
>>1299798why do you want iron and dust

>>1299746you don't have a single proph character or you never got your last 15 attribute points?I always used to skip the maguuma and some kryta shit, desert is fine by comparison
>>1299828only one proph char that I got LDoA onall others are nightfall+factionsprophecies is too damn slow for me and the attribute quests are a big part of that
>>1299822i don't know what you're talking about, common materials = shit, rare materials = good
>>1299798Ohhh, I see. The other guy was just saying to post it to presearing forum because lumps of charcoal are super expensive there or something. I thought maybe you'd salvaged one in presearing without knowing
>>1299896what a common post
You can really tell the drop in population after the anniversary event.
>>1299122they disappear occasionally inbetween game updates. Check again next double competitive week. REMINDER WE ARE DOING PROPH PROG TOMB OF PRIMEVAL KINGS TOMORROW AT 7 PM EST. All are welcome to join, but you are only allowed to run core/Proph skills, no PvE only skills.

im out tomorrow evening gonna miss another game sucks!!!
>roka hasn't logged in in 3 daysthats it im killing myself
there's something always wanted to do since 2006 with vizunah square involving as many minion masters as possible how many minions could you get with 16 mm's and that many bodies? would togo or mhelno get stuck anyway?
>>1300901>would togo or mhelno get stuck anyway?Mhenlo would try to heal minions so that's big suckage.
>>1300901I'll get online if you want to try it
>>1300909it's gonna take a concerted effort
>>1300980It's two people who put minion skills on their heroes, not that hard.
>>1300985bud i wasn't 16 people not two
>>1300987one person in foreign district one in local
>>1300987>>1300995have sex retards
>>1300901gonna run into corpse problems with 16, could use jagged bones maybe
>>1300901I'm glad I'm not the only person who's had this idea living rent free in their head for years.I don't think we'll have the corpses for it, and due to the fact the mission has afflicted (aka melee explosives) + mind burn eles I think we'll hit a critical mass that just dies faster than we can replace. You'll likely have better success on a mission with 8 people but with better conditions for maintaining minions. Old school discord builds are probably up your ally as well.However sub optimal conditions aside, the optimal party comp would likely include something like:Resto rit with resto spirits - the healing coming from recup + rejuv is not to be underestimated.human ST player (I mention human because maintaining ST with this many minions will be a super human effort this is the hardest role in the entire party)N/P bone fiend paragon for the movement buff heals - can be a heroHR para for obvious reasons (higher level minions + better healing = minions dying less, also 1 HR para could in theory provide HR to entire 16 man squad). If they can fit stuff like "Go For The Eyes" even better. It might be possible to skip out on a BiP necro for the sole reason that shit will be dying so often soul reaping will be going wild. However your ST player will IRL kill themselves if you don't bring it, and blood magic has Blood Bond which has fantastic synergy with minions. If possible this hero sticks 9 into death magic to run Vereta's Sacrifice so they can spam +10 regen to allied minions. (well of blood would honestly not be awful choice here but would mean less minions so bleh).Each party should run 1 avatar of dwayna healing derv, they AoE pulse 50 healing constantly to earshot minions which is huge. Have them stick 12 into healing prayers to grab dwayna's sorrow + healing seed for even better minion healing.A ritualist with weapons of 3 forges for INSANE minion scaling (maybe can be stuck on resto rit?)1/2
>>1300998>>1301038duality of man
>>1301038>1/2Oh god it's a twatter post
>>13010382/2For last (non necro) slot you'd want 2 rangers, 1 running TaO with a pet because it's little known but TaO does actually work on minions iirc which is huge. This ranger should also run battle standard of honor and courage (extra damage + extra armor for the minions super buffing them to instantly melt anything they reach).The second ranger would be for bringing lacerate and ranger spirits, if you stick with vizunah it's a great mission for this particular type of ranger. Lacerate is god like if you are running 100 minions with jagged bones meaning every time jagged bones slaps something, it does -5 health degen, winnowing spirits for extra physical damage for minions, and maybe even predatory season just for minions healing every attack (though not sure how I feel on this one, symbiosis might work too) This would leave you with 9 slots for necros. DO NOT RUN AURA OF LICH. Aura will steal all the corpses constantly and use up 20 corpses to produce 10 minions. You can be pretty free with your picks otherwise, I'd recommend a minimum of 3 jagged bone necros per party, if they aren't running jagged bones they should at least have shambling horror on their bar. At least one necro should have Verata's Aura to fix any accidents, A human player needs to be a human sacc and run 55 HP necro and just do nothing other than spam blood of the master. You need low HP for this otherwise blood of master will trigger on 40 minions and instantly kill you. They should run Vampiric Horrors and maybe even Flesh Golem for flavor. With HR Para in play, all jagged horrors will be level 20 giving them 480 HP and 81 armor (equal to a warrior). There's more you can add to this comp but I think this is as many minions as we can make it without compromising viability, it might even be worth it to run 2 ST rit's each only maintaining 2 spirits.
>>13010523/2ALSO IT'S TOMB TIME LOG ON FAGGOTS (and necromancers)
>>1301038>>1301052Based dissertation poster
>>1301038>>1301052Does order of undeath apply to all minions or just yours? Could be fun to have the 55 run that alongside blood of the master.
does order of pain affect minions that aren't yours?
>>1301038>>130105216 N'R's with jagged bones, summon bone minions and comfort animal with bears for brutal mauling and then some skills to initially kill stuff, and no healing that's gay
>>1301109>16 niggersSounds like a nightmare.
>>1301098don't think minions are party members, even your own
>>1300900i have completed my goals in guild wars.i wrote a long /blog post about it on completion a little over a month ago now. a couple of the caps have you guys in it (though really just as flavor text). i got busy after so forgot to ask about ~self promotion~ rules. it's not really about gw, it really is a navelgazing /blog post. let me know if you guys want to see it though, it's not like anyone read it or asked for it. i just needed to write it. gw was just where it took place this time. and it was good. i still think about it.i still consider gw now and again. it's just not obviously more important than other things. i don't want to vanquish or continue campaigns. i wanna draw instead.maybe one day i'll finally deliver on that long-awaited nika porn.
>>1301384>gacha addict>for a game called "Path to Nowhere"oh no no nostay gone unless you return with that porn
How did your Tombs go?
>>1301411Much like our HA runs, we got to the Hall of Heroes and got summarily wrecked.
>>1301098Order of Pain does not affect minions. Unless you meant Order Of Undeath, which only affects YOUR minions, not other party members. Overall for a meme squad of minions order of undeath won't be that great unless you're going for flavor, N/P with incoming is superior pick for pure survivability of your minions.Also I was bored so I decided to set up the builds for this hypothetical scenario that we'll never do. If any real players are playing the jagged bones roles mindbender is a really powerful choice, otherwise can be filled with whatever you are missing. If you choose to run a BiP hero have them run Vampiric Horrors and Verata's Aura as your side skills. You could also run something like a flesh golem with vereta's for flavor instead, just make sure someone has verata's to clean up any accidents a single necro or 2 dying would cause a civil war to break out ontop of the party.If you're taking heroes it might even be worth dropping Death Nova since I don't know how the AI prioritizes when to use jagged bones vs death nova. Masochism can also maybe be dropped, but only if you have full confidence in your HR para or you are taking. Another idea would be going N/Me with arcane mimicry and have 1 person bring Flesh Golem, so now all the necros in the group could now have their own flesh golem. But that might be pushing this comp to its breaking point.In total you should be able to maintain 90-100 minions at max. The Resto Rit, ST, HR, and TaO are most important roles for players to fill first. Also after thinking about it, don't bring a sacc necro with blood of master, even if you were 55hp a single blood is master with 50+ minions would instantly kill you.
>>1301411We got to halls but overpulled and wiped sadly. Not bad for our second attempt would of been nice to have more players though :P we had 3 henchies>>1301384All good Roka was a pleasure to have you while we did, feel free to drop in every now and then if you want to join us for stuff.Speaking of stuff, HM FoW tonight at 7 PM EST
>>1301384I'd be interested to read it, can link it if you're worried about obtrusiveness>i wanna draw insteadgood on you
>>1301453i've used an avatar of dwayna healer hero and you either need to manually spam their enchantments (which doesn't require that much effort) or you need a player, they suck ass at effectively using that build
>>1294108I'm in love with that ele's edgy dripis she wielding the sword and offhand to hide her energy?
>>1301999That was our /fun/ ally who ended up showing up. They were running an E/Mo build also HM FoW 1 hour

>>1302445>The thread said anyone want a Sandblasted Lodestone? Have an extra. I asked for it. This week’s GotT was 1 lodestone each. I was only playing one character that couldn’t reach Desolation, but if it’s just to get to Nick, I can go there on another character. He showed up and gave it to me. I asked if he wanted anything. ‘Nothin, unless you wanna tip a playa’. ‘Have you gotten next week’s yet?’. ‘No’. Gave him 3 black pearls.im a side character on someones blog this is my biggest achievement ever

sorry Thunderous Ranger I was afk, what's up?
>>1303173Wanted to ask for help for today's zm , heroes on ranger are kinda sucky.
Today starts lucky week. Feed me all your proestest of tips on how to max lucky and treasure hunter.
>>1303707Did you farm during the golden egg weeks? That's the cheapest way to get treasure hunter, I try to farm at least 250-500 eggs every year just so I can slowly chip away at it because I can't stand doing the locked chest runsDid you buy lockpicks during the brief week we owned an outpost? That's the cheapest lockpicks you can buy for maxing treasure hunter.For lucky/unlucky you just need to be rich and willing to afk on boardwalk for a couple of festivals over the years. If you're really lucky once in a blue moon you can get a lucky week during a boardwalk event.Otherwise good luck. Luvky/unlucky tends to be easier to max then treasure hunter.
>>1303715I got some eggs this year but hate farming, can't do the same repetitive shit over and over.What about chest running near Boreal Station?
>>1303723>can't do the same repetitive shit over and over.>What about chest running near Boreal Stationthat doesn't qualify as the same repetitive shit over and over?
>>1303902It does but it has to be done.If I'm going for Lucky it doesn't matter what chest I open right? Only that I retain the pick.
>>1303908Locked chests are always ok, for other types of chests that you can use keys for, iirc the key value needs to be above 600 gold, otherwise it does not count.
Blog post time: I did sharts of Orr on my paragon with heroes and I went in expecting pain. I did it several times on my mes, warrior, derv and ass so I knew what to expect but thought it'd be hell.I turned out to be the smoothest SoO ride I've had with heroes, by orders of magnitude. No wipes, only one death was the BiP necro. Fendi and his bois weren't a problem at all, I just stood there and yelled TNTF and SY whenever they were available, it was great. I was running Humane Resources on my para, squad was BiP necro, ST rit, Ineptitude mes, Picnic mes and 3 Esurges.The tankiness from shouts and damage from 20 in mesmer attributes is too much.
>>1304198yeah turns out that cranking attributes to their max is really broken lmaoGlad you had a good run, I fucking hate SoO. Para is the only class I haven't leveled, but I made one during the anny event so I could at least get the weapons.
>>1304198>HR para, BiP necro, ST rit, Ineptitude mes, Picnic mes and 3 Esurgesdamn bro that's crazy
>>1304309It's not p2w because I enjoy it
>>1304198I couldn't complete SoO with an imbagon build (Fendi fucked me up) but HR made it a snoozefest. The only aggravation is from the brazier mechanic because it adds padding and downtime. That's why I like Bogroot Growths because you just run, kill, and speedclear with HR.

I'm officially done with trying the AFK survivor farm , back to the YHoT storybooks.
>>1306759vaettir farm takes a week for r3
>>1306763I'm doing it with the warrior, and both vaettir farming and raptor farming are too risky for me to do them without dying, not to mention the connection can screw you in a second.
>>1306759>YHoT storybooks>45k xp when fulljesus is that worth it? nm fow is 100k xp
>>1306995Well it's 67,500 xp if you only care about the xp, but I wanted to pump up my Kurzick title while I'm at it.
>>1306789Raptors are a pretty good way to do it if you're a warrior and profiting from the runs, imo. Lose an hour of progress because your dumb ass stripped wary stance early when you were at 800k xp? Doesn't feel quite so bad when you've got a bag full of glittering dust and birthday cupcakes.That said, you probably will die a few times.
>>1307449I think vaettir is a good suggestion, it's very easy to do, and vaettirs do very little damage so you'll have several seconds to react and fix your mistake (or quickly zone out) Also reminder to everyone, Friday at 7 PM EST we are doing tomb of primeval prog come join us for slow methodical progression as we try not to wipe again with old school builds. Saturday will be NM FoW prog also at 7 PM. Both events will be using old school prophecies skills only, no PvE only skills, no cons, no summon stones we'll have to strategize how to beat missions rather than just charging straight through everything. Last time we did this it was a ton of fun
>>1307483i know what i'm bringing
>>1307514>Multiply Your Powerattribute number go UP
>>1306759You must be pretty tarded to not be able to figure out the farm kekwTry this out, it's a much better setup than what is on PvX. Keep in mind that this one is geared for NM, not HMhttps://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/User:Foo/GoM

I got some Zaishen Keys. Is there any guide as to what is worth keeping from the chest?
>>1308204eblade, crystalline sword, voltaic spear, obsidian edge, draconic aegis, celestial compass basically any rare with a skin you haven't seen before, and if it looks cool it's worth checking even if you have seen itel tonics, especially the nonmonthly ones

The vanquish for Pockmark Flats and Regent Valley went smoothly with the Rescue at Minister Cho HM setup from PVXWiki, maybe I won't have to wait to get the legionnaire summoning stone to vanquish Ascalon.
>>1309502I would really recommend at least doing a caravan VQ from Yak's Bend. Having a party of 6 instead of 4 makes it pretty trivial. Not worth waiting until Wayfarer's.

>>1310993Did you offer? ;-)
>>1309523Thanks anon, I'll try that for the next 4-man vanquish.Today's ZV is Snake Dance, what would you suggest for vanquishing all three zones at once (except DP consumables)? I'm running Dagger Spam + Offensive Mesmerway
>>1311279That's an ok setup but be warned snake dance is notorious for knock downs.
>>1311320Should I leave Asuran Scan for it?
>>1311428IIRC you don't need asuran in snake dance, do bring something like "i'm unstoppable".
>>1311461Yep, same as the fucking Panjiang Peninsula from yesterday... one time there were 2 healers and 2 ritualists in the same group...
>>1311486It's actually a lot worse in snake dance, stone summit, giants and azure shadows all have knock downs and you will see a lot of giants and shadows.
